v Coventry City (h) - 16/10/21

[Fraserkirky]

But for a ten min period in the first half, Coventry the much better side. 
 

Time for Tony to go. 

[jim mk2]

It's pathetic, it really is. Another Saturday when spirits were lifted only to be beaten down again

Tony, please go. Your time is up

[booth]

How many points is that lost?

Ya, for 5 minutes every 9 games 

Put it this way, you know when he's been subbed.

He's our only Midfielder that can carry the ball. Opposition commentators on iFollow last year were always baffled when we took him off.

[Tugay-is-God]

Very disappointing 

[booth]

I've seen this script before. Lots of points lost leading to draws then the losses come.

Tony's journey.

He's an honourable man, apparently.

Think it’s 6 points lost from winning positions 

[booth]

Mid table turgid Tony.

[DE.]

Another clown show from Mowbray and his one-half wonders. 

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

What a kick in the balls from 2-0 up.

Reiterate again....going nowhere with this Manager.

Add up the games where he's gone full Tony before a ball was kicked and it's much more damning.

I wish he would move on. Permanently.

We were unlucky at the end with those two chances for Edun and Diaz. But we were lucky not to concede that penalty. A fair result against a team in decent form but the frustration is that yet again this Tony Mowbray side has shown an inability to defend a 2 goal lead. There can't be another team in English football that has consistently had this problem to this degree for this long.

[Fraserkirky]

Time to scrap the wing back formation AGAIN

[Bigdoggsteel]

This squad could and should be top 3 now 

[Gamst]

I can think of few clearer examples of when a management tenure has been so stale. He needs to leave now. 

[Gordon Gekko]

Oh FFS that’s really dampened my mood 

[harryhealless1928]

I was also at the game in 1967 when we lost at home to Coventry 1-0 and they got promoted. Ronnie Clayton(our captain at the time)and a member of Englands 1962 World Cup squad(along with Bryan Douglas) played as a makeshift centre-half ..but this game is more disappointing......we must be the League leaders in turning winning positions into draws.

Unable to defend a lead ..even with five at the back.

[Sparks Rover]

Another game where we need to get 3 to win. Same as the last 3 seasons, utter shyte.

[Gordon Gekko]

Bloody thrown that away pissed off 

[moerpho]

Can't really complain if you ask me...Coventrys manager got it wrong in the first half - Mowbray got it wrong in the second. We have several players out and some just coming back and most of us were expecting the start of the Spiral of Death. Still feel that with a better tactical manager we would have won this one on pure spite.....still....it wasn't half bad...

Shout out to Ayala, Lenihan and van Hecke in defense despite some glaring and costly errors, but they happen every game and on the whole the trio performed well. Think van Hecke should've been taken of around 70 mins as he looked shot at the end. Who would you put on? Beats me....so he will do.

Also a mention for mr. Brereton Diaz who continues to amaze and surprise this season. Even got close those few minutes he was on and showed no sign of fatigue from travelling. 

Now...let's just hope this isn't a blip as some said before the start of the game - i.e. the odd draw to keep the spirit and hope up while being an eager contestant in the Spiral of Death. I still say come on you blues and hope to see more people in the stands going forward. If all goes well in life (not looking good) I'll be making the trip in february to again put my miserable bum on a seat in mighty Ewood.  I have spoken! 

[rovers11]

Same old problems persist and will do until we get a better manager. A draw felt about right as Coventry were the better team for long periods and were on the wrong end of some shocking refereeing. Buckley should have got a second yellow and it was a stonewall penalty in the second half.

Mid table beckons.

[Mr. E]

At this point I am more confident in us when we are 3-0 down than 2-0 up.

[tomphil]

Well as they say on facebook 'stop moaning we'd be Bolton if it wasn't for Mowbray and Venkies'

Meanwhile the groundhog crawls back into its den until QPR.

[CambridgeRover]

Out thought by Robbins.

After Coventry scored their second, Mowbray was walking around tapping his head. 

Out of ideas

Send him back to Coventry
